Welcome
to the homepage of the Vancouver Parecon Collective! Our purpose is to
advocate, research and implement parecon institutions, values and
procedures in Vancouver, the surrounding lower mainland and elswhere
throughout Canada. We do this through workshops, information sharing
and activism. We are committed to supporting struggles against
classism, racism, sexism, war, corporate greed, environmental
destruction, and all other institutional horrors we face today.

"A
great many activists and concerned people ask, quite rightly, what
alternative form of social organization can be imagined that might
overcome the grave flaws -- often real crimes -- of contemporary
society in more far-reaching ways than short-term reform. Parecon is
the most serious effort I know to provide a very detailed possible
answer to some of these questions, crucial ones, based on serious
thought and careful analysis."-- Noam Chomsky

We've also constructed a Parpolity presentation (Open Office version), a candidate political system consistant with parecon work by Steven Shalom. It's not yet ready for a talk.

This is our introductory brochure (pdf version, you need acrobat reader to read it, you can also modify it by downloading the Microsoft publisher version, after unzipping it) that introduces us and Participatory Economics.
